With a shield of Comté, a lance of baguette

Since after a long night of election partying, you need a nice hearty cheese plate to get you going the next morning - and Cambridge will soon have it's own knight of cheese:

On Monday (Nov. 10), the Consul General of France in Boston will present the medal of the French Order of the “Mérite Agricole” — translation: “agricultural merit” — to (Formaggio owner) Gurdal for his passion for French fare.

I figure that now we have a new world order, we're probably not supposed to make as much fun of the French anymore, eh? I do find it odd that his cheese shop uses the Italian name, however.
